The University of Cambridge is made up of 31 different colleges, among which King`s College, Queen`s College and St. John`s College are most famous. Cambridge University is a leading international research center. King`s College is the largest of these three famous colleges. Its most famous building is the Chapel, which was without equal in magnificence in either Oxford or Cambridge when it was built. It took nearly a century to finish this Chapel, which is the product of three separate periods of construction. In the Chapel, the most valuable thing is the fan vault—the largest vault of its kind in the world. When I entered the chapel, immediately the sense of the solemnity and spaciousness became clear with its fan-vaulted ceiling. Another famous sight in the chapel is the colorful glass windows. They cover the north, south, east and west sides of the Chapel. Although it is about 5oo years since the windows were completed in the 16th century, they still look new. The figures in them still look very clear and vivid.
